What's he saying? One premiership in 11 years with the Eagles.
Sourpuss rant here. He has a point, eg. Eagles being a financial powerhouse, having Judd, Cox and a host of others and only a 53% win ratio. Oversaw the team during a time of toxic and rampant drug use hmmmmmm. Wait.
He's perfect for Essendon!
To quote KT31: "you bad."

Wallis has been living abroad for a few years, mainly in a France from my understanding.
More of an In Bruges guy?

And staring in our midfield, the commute must be a killer.

I thought he looked tired towards the end of the season.

Re: Brendan McCartney to Melbourne
The Walls article points out something that was glaringly obvious to me from about a third of the way into the year last year, and that was the likelihood of some senior players pissing and moaning (for whatever reason) and it having an impact on the younger players.
I don't think he'd be bad for the EFC, but if the Knights tenure was anything to go by Bombres supporters are definitely not up for being patient.

Re: Brendan McCartney to Melbourne
Maybe the Bumbers just wanted at least another applicant for a sham coaching selection process to justify choosing Worsfold. If so feel sorry for BMac.

Better off being a list builder than a head coach, and to be honest that's what they need, to build the list again.
